1 Bedroom Cottage in Alachua

On 5 beautiful country acres, our guesthouse is perfect for peaceful relaxation. Grab a cup of coffee and head to the patio to catch up on that book you have been meaning to get too, or take a dip in the hot tub to give your aching muscles a rest. In the evening, cozy up outside and catch the breathtaking views of the moon and stars. After a memory-filled evening, snuggle up in our cozy bed and stream your favorites on the Smart TV! Great space for those looking to re-connect with nature.
Guest access

Summary: Beautiful grounds. Very clean inside and out. We were met by the owner Lisa who was extremely helpful and nice. Once inside we were greeted by a lovely note and cookies! I would not hesitate to return. 5 out of 5 Thank you Lisa!
